Bantam3D Grass

With Bantam3DGrass you can generate grass and pebble fields. Form and bending of the grass blade can be adjusted, so can colour and behaviour in the light. A grass field is then generated and each individual blade randomly turned and set into the field.

The same is true for the pebbles. Form and appearance can be adjusted in a wireframe and then you can select the colour and how it interacts with light. A random pebble field is generated.

Up to 7 grasses and 4 pebbles may be combined in a field. Additionally, you can import an alpha channel and a bump map. They are taken into consideration when the field is generated.
